Yes, Frankentruck has one of the newer versions. Over the years running changes were rod ends, spring cups, caps, color variations. Frankentruck has the round cap. Good shocks but were very limited on springs early on. Tbh, the might not have come with gold shafts in the early days but not sure on t...

You just haven't asked the right people...

Just read about it on fakebooc but decided to come here to kick it around a little. So, I missed out on the pulley sets the first time as I was kinda financially strapped and hoping to get a couple sets this time around but was wanting to get the kit you are going to offer. Taking preorders :mrgreen...

Around me it didn't take any talent to drive an 1/8 scale and they kinda killed the 1/10 scale scene locally so that kinda did it for a lot of locals. Not saying I don't have a couple or 20 of them but there just isn't any appeal to me to work on them. I like the simplicity of the 1/10 scale stuff.

But don't they ALL?

as you've been doing. Great work by the way...just nothing from 2000 or newer and they'll be good

But... I've got some REALLY awesome later ads :mrgreen: ...jokes aside, I've been of the same mindset, cutting the ads off around 2000. Really appreciate ya'lls kind words. I'll keep including the ad info and if anyone has any thoughts or opinions (good or bad) let me know, I'd be happy to hear it....

does emptying out the dehumidifier count

Is that a Composite Craft originated chassis? I'm not sure. I usually expect Composite Craft to have the black white black layers showing at the edges but I have a NOS chassis for an Optima that has an all black edge. This also has an all black edge. Based on surface finish and general overall qual...

Fallen down the rabbit hole of starting too many projects now, Procat, XLS, PB Maxima, and even my Rocky is covered in a film of dust and dissapointment.
So let's start another.......

vicious cycle but it goes along with breathing with some of us...

Kiss was all right but at that age I had Meat Loaf, Eagles, David Bowie, Rod Stewart and AC/DC on LP and 8track. :P I also was only about 8-10 in that span but if I remember correctly, no rememberance of any of their music but the performances were what put them over the top. Also, agree with the st...

It is super cool and tempting!

Not trying to 'sell' you on this but I'd like to add to your quote that it's super cool and worth it.

My question on another forum about the rc10 4x4 conversion led me to this site and now have the chance to build one of Jeff's kits...finally.

If you have that much free time, how about you come paint my fence?

I'll paint it if you pay the fare both ways... Hell, I'll even spring for the paint
